Streamer Earns $10k A Day And Says It's Low

Twitch star StableRonaldo gave fans a rare transparent look at his streaming revenue in early January. He showed earnings from the first six days of the month and said the overall numbers are lower than his usual pace.
Over sixty thousand dollars in six days
From January 1 through January 6, Ronaldo streamed to roughly forty thousand viewers per broadcast.
During that stretch, his income by day was:
-
January 1: 8,743 dollars
-
January 2: 9,888 dollars
-
January 3: 7,621 dollars
-
January 4: 12,469 dollars
-
January 5: 14,968 dollars
-
January 6: 7,120 dollars
The total reached 60,809 dollars, averaging just over ten thousand dollars per day. Based on hours streamed, it worked out to 1,447 dollars per hour.
Why he considers it a weak month
Despite the huge total, Ronaldo told viewers these numbers fall short of what he normally earns.
He explained that January typically sees the lowest ad revenue of the year. Brand spending spikes during November and December for Black Friday and holiday campaigns, then resets once the new year starts.
According to Ronaldo, if these streams had taken place in December, his total would already be in the hundreds of thousands.
How Twitch earnings fluctuate
Viewer support, sponsorships, and ad deals can swing dramatically month to month. Many creators rely on the final quarter of the year to make up for slower stretches like January.
Even with the dip, Ronaldo is far from struggling financially. He began 2026 with a massive three hundred thousand dollar win on a prediction bet, correctly guessing that a New Year’s Eve TV broadcast would show a gay couple kissing after the ball drop.
